Crooked teeth = Crushed skull

Crooked teeth are a function of the space in your palate, which is a function of your skull.

Someone commented on one of my posts recently that his friend got dementia despite not having any orthodontic work like Bruce Willis.

And he went on to say that his friend had crooked, yellow teeth. To show how his friend obviously did not have any orthodontic work done.

But the point he is forgetting is that this is the natural way the skull crushes. Crooked teeth for me is exactly synonymous with having a partially crushed skull.

And having ‘yellow teeth’ to me shows that there is a structural issue with that person’s skull otherwise the teeth would remain white by default as i explained in this article:

Teeth should stay clean without effort

And so to hear that someone with yellow, crooked teeth has dementia is not surprising to me in the least.

Rather I would be surprised if the person had naturally wide arches (untouched by a dentist), perfect teeth and fully extruded wisdom teeth. Particularly if their cusps were completely unground down.

And today i’m going to explore why that is at a deeper level.

Skull from ancient Roman

What causes crooked teeth?

Crooked teeth are simply a real estate problem.

There isn't enough space in your jaw for all your teeth to fit properly. That's it. That's the whole story.

Think about it - our ancestors from just a few hundred years ago almost never had crooked teeth.

Their wisdom teeth came in just fine. Why? Because their skulls developed properly, giving their teeth plenty of room.

When dentists tell you crooked teeth are genetic, they're talking complete BS. Show me the gene that suddenly appeared in the last 50 years that's making everyone's teeth crooked. You can't, because it doesn't exist.

Your dental arches are an indicator of your skull

When your dental arches are too narrow for your teeth to be in a nice line like they are supposed to, that's not just a dental problem. It's a sign that your entire skull is slightly crushed.

Think of your skull like a balloon that was ‘supposed to be’ fully inflated.

The problem is you never developed correctly and so the balloon never fully inflated. Instead it remained say 75% inflated.

And that had the resulting effect of crushing everything inside it. Not just your dental arches, but your entire cranial structure. Your face gets narrower, your cheekbones get less pronounced, your jaw gets pushed back.

This is why people with crooked teeth often have certain facial features in common - narrow faces, weak chin projection, poor side profile. It's all connected.

If your skull is crushed, your brain is too

Now here's the kicker - if your skull is crushed, guess what else is getting squeezed? Your brain.

It’s just logical no? Your brain was genetically designed to be at 100% of it’s size but instead the house that it resides in (your skull) only allows it to express itself to 75%.

Now you might not have obvious symptoms as you have probably grown up with it and think it's normal.

But if you were to ‘inflate’ your skull to 100% do I think you would function and even act quite differently?

No doubts! I’ve seen this play out on me, my son and others in my test group for awhile now. Like clockwork.

Also I've been watching people's ‘structure’ and how it correlates to their personality and function for almost a decade now, and the pattern is pretty clear - people with perfect skull development consistently have better neurological function.

They're generally happier, more confident, think faster, and have better energy. It's not a coincidence. When your brain isn't being squeezed by a partially crushed skull, it simply works better.

So how do you uncrush your skull?

Well you know the answer before I even say it by now right? You uphold the principles I laid out earlier:

1- Add vertical height to the bite
2- No locking occlusion
3- Improve the curve of spee

My 10-year-old son is a perfect example of how this works.

He was a mouth breather with narrow arches, and we put composite on his back teeth about three years ago in late 2021. Since then, his dental arches have expanded significantly, and his entire skull shape has changed.

But it's not just physical changes - his mood improved, his academic performance got better, his sleep quality improved dramatically. We're literally "inflating" his skull, and everything is improving as a result.

The beautiful thing is that this process works at any age. Your skull isn't some fixed structure - it can expand and decompress if you give it the right biomechanical support.

I've done this to myself multiple times over the past decade. Each time my skull expands, my neurological function improves dramatically. I think clearer, my memory gets better, my mood improves, and I have more energy.

Closing thoughts

The medical establishment wants you to believe that crooked teeth are just a cosmetic issue that needs to be "straightened" with braces or aligners. But they're missing the bigger picture entirely.

Crooked teeth are an indicator that your skull hasn't developed properly. Or perhaps it had but you ground your teeth down or did orthodontic work to ‘deflate’ it.

And until you address that underlying compression, you're never going to be operating at your full potential.

So if you have crooked teeth, than by my logic your skull is at least partially crushed.

But the good news is, you can fix it. Not with braces or surgery, but by understanding and working with these fundamental biomechanics.
